Description
A campfire used to heat stuff. The higher the quality, the faster it will heat up anything put in it.
Usage
To extend the life of a fire you need to add fuel to it. Activate a log or wood scrap, right click the Campfire and select Burn. It caps out at 20kg worth of fuel, so adding any more than that at any one time is a waste. You can examine a campfire to get a message telling how long it will burn. If it says that it "...will burn for a long time", it means that you got more than 10 minutes worth of fuel in it. If it says anything else, its less than that and you'd be wise to add more.
Fires may hold up to 18 ore.
The quality of the kindling decides the quality of the campfire, and the higher the quality of the campfire, the sooner food will cook or smithing items reach their "glowing hot" stage.
An expired campfire will yield 0.10kg of ash when emptied of items.
Tips
Contrary to what was believed, the quality of the material you fuel the fire with using the "burn" command has no impact at all on the heating speed or lifespan of the fire. Weight is the only thing that matters. You can however adjust the properties of a fire by using a different kind of fuel such as Birchwood, Tar or Peat, rather than just plain old pinewood
Additionally, don't forget to keep your fire in a "..will burn for a long time" state because it will lose heating power when fuel begins to run low. At its final stages, it may very well be so weak that items inside will cool faster than they heat.
